Just because they're asking it doesn't mean they'll get it. And if they do, congratulations, the market has spoken (actually, if they don't get it the market has spoken also.)

Utica ave? St John's? Albany projects and weeksville? Newcomers aside, that price is ridiculous even for this new generation. Not even Manhattan is this expensive

They want push lower income residents out of the city. Crown Heights is 20 to 25 min train ride to Manhattan they are too close to prime areas.

I'll never forget watching the riots of 1991 while I was in HS. The evening news was in fact now reality TV. Savages wilding thru the streets, turning over cop cars, robbing and stabbing...doing wut dey do.

Man, I hope people do google searches before they decide to move to that place.

Agreed that 1991 was a really disturbing episode/riot in Crown Heights.
